When the tool gives the error notice (flag in the upper tool bar notification
area - looks like a red flag I think) there is a _long_ page of details. The
command line is in the upper 1/3 before a horizontal bar. Below the bar is the
FAQ and heavy details on the problems.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

I just looked again at the extended "error output."<br>
It contains this line:<br>
<br>
You can generate a local policy module to allow this access - see FAQ<br>
Please file a bug report.<br>
<br>
FAQ is a link but there is no way to search that entire (LARGE) file for<br>
instructions on creating a "local policy module" so the effort is a
waste<br>
of time. There is, on the version of SELinux that comes with FC 13 (64-<br>
bit), no command line instruction included to unblock the offending app.<br>
